I was reading some UART specs yesterday, and apparently you have to
shove a 0 or a 1 into a specific bit in a specific register in the
UART to tell it to use 1 or 2 stop bits respectively.  The nice part
/appears to be/ that if the character size has been set to 5 bits the
UART automatically uses 1.5 stop bits if programmed for 2 stop bits.

Can some hardware guru kindly validate this, especially in the context 
of Linux?
